Today I went to Scrapstore to collect all the materials I need for my machine. I collected a good selection of materials, including long tubes, books and tapes to act as dominoes and little objects like corks and bottle tops to use as weights. Whilst we were there we arranged a date for a final meeting with John, the 5th November. When we got back I began experimenting with the new materials. One thing I got was a plastic container with valves on the lid, and I noticed that if I dropped a heavy object on it, it could fire a bottle top quite far, although it was very hit and miss. I also created a rolling object from two vinyl records, and I rigged up a system to get it rolling, but as you can see it's not very accurate.
